What a vasectomy feels like

[MobBoss]

Why undergo a procedure to achieve that, when you can use condoms, or the woman can use pills?

Condoms are not 100% preventative and besides sex without a condom is infinitely more satisfying that sex with a condom.

The pill is not 100% preventative either and can also lead to cancer issues in some women down the road.

Vasectomy just makes you unable to impregnate, which is not much of an accomplishment. Although it is your choice anyway.

Until you get to live condom/pill free you wont appreciate how much of an accomplishment it truly is.

 

[MobBoss]

A vasectomy is a sin

Your point? Everyone sins.

In fairness, so is everything else that takes place between the navel and the knees.

I wouldnt agree to that.

 

[Godwynn]

So, after reading that I'mma have the woman get her tubes tied.

 

[Kyriakos]

Yes, it really is a great accomplisment. I would not want to be in the place of someone who gets divorced after he has become unfertile though.

 

[Perfection]

What I can expect is about seven days of decreasing discomfort. Unless I get an infection. Or if I get cocky and overdo the exertion, in which case I'll get a scrotal heamatoma causing my bollocks to swell up to twice their size and turn black. **** that.

Yeah, I had a nasty case of that after my hernia surgery, and let me tell ya, twice their size is a major understatement.

I'll be getting one of these any 6 months now. I've got two children and am fine with that number, I'm just waiting for my wife to be as certain as I am about it. So thanks Kafka2 for the post, to .Shane for additional reassurance, and to MobBoss for additional useful information (that could easily make the pain worth it even without the sterility benefit).

@varwnos - condoms do get tiresome after a while and can break or come off. It is great to not have to bother with them during the act as I can attest, my wife was on the pill for a long time. The pill can be good, but there can also be reasons not to take them. Long term use can cause problems, and there are side effects.

Well, I can't speak for anyone else, but I've never had to produce a sperm count on a date.

So, if the primary motivation for having a vasectomy isn't to fire blanks and have no more children, what is it?

lol, you are confused. I was answering a specific question about benefits of no longer needing bc.

So, yes, the primary reason is to avoid an unwanted pregnancy (when you know damn well sure you'll never want kids again) and the side-benefit is bc-free sex.

comprende?

Why, would anyone in their right mind allow someone to tie their tubes or cut their tubes, after all the pain you have to go through? That sounds like torture.

 

[RedWolf]

Oh man... I've always assumed that one day I'll probably have to have one of those - and this just makes me even more nervous about it.

I've heard commercials on the radio for "laser vasectomies". Suppossed to be less painfull and shorter recovery. Anybody have any experience with those?

 

[Eran of Arcadia]

I don't know, knives are bad, but lasers!?!?!?

"No, Mr. Bond, I expect you to die."

Seriously, though, I am as unexperienced in this field as anyone can be and I still imagine that being done with condoms forever has to be at the very least, convenient.

 

[Cheezy the Wiz]

I don't know, knives are bad, but lasers!?!?!?

"No, Mr. Bond, I expect you to die."

Excellent!

I hope I never have to get one of those. It's not the doc messing with the family jewels that gets me, its having the gun silenced forever.

 

[Irish Caesar]

at the Goldfinger line...

Thanks for the description, I read it hours ago and I'm still a bit tense reading the second page of this thread...

Looks like the Caesar family will be a large one...

 

[Fifty]

That story was a total turn-on.

 

[Chandrasekhar]

I must be a sadist, reading this thread... also:

I don't know, knives are bad, but lasers!?!?!?

"No, Mr. Bond, I expect you to die."

 

[ummmm........]

I'm asked to spend the next 15 minutes sitting in the waiting room, in case my nuts fall off and go bouncing across the floor while the typically English crowd in the room pretend nothing is happening. Or something.

Absolute funniest thing I've ever read at CFC. It took me about a minute to regain my composure enough to write this reply . . .

 

[Amin001]

i can not help it but when i hear of the subject of sterilization the subject of eugenics comes to mind

i do not think you have done this for that purpose of course

 

[CaptainF]

Lord CHRIST that was painful just to read.

I kid you not, I felt sick to my digestive tract reading that. My own balls drew up way too far in my abdomen in sheer terror. Especially the part with the cold cork going up in your nuts.

AAAAARRRRGHHHH!!!!!!

*Dawgphood001 checks his balls, giving them a good squeeze. All two of them are present, large and masculine as ever.*

Ahh much better. I have now decided that if I'm ever in a marital/committed relationship, the woman's gonna tie HER tubes, damnit.

I think the only thing worse than getting a vasectomy are the following, in order of painfullness:

1. Giving birth

2. Getting circumcised as a teenager( not a baby!!)

 

[CurtSibling]

Reminds me of a joke:

A gansta rapper goes for a vasectomy wearing a tuxedo and top hat.
When asked why he is dressed in such a grand fashion, he replies:

"If I am gonna be impotent, I may as well look impotent!"
